Congrats to cooldeals for winning the GA medal!Congrats to TheCrown for winning this tourney!

I ran this same exact tournament a year ago, and here is the long awaited sequel.

Ok, so I need 32 players, 4 captains and 28 other players for this tourney.

This is going to be a round robin, but you will only face the players not on your team. How do you get the teams? The captain will take all the players that signed up (minus the other captains) and rank them in a list when I ask for them after sign ups. Using random.org, the captains will be seeded 1 through 4 into a snake draft. So the order to draft will be team 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 3, 2, 1, 1 and so on. The captain will get the highest available player on their list. So yes, everyone needs to be listed.

Once the teams are split up, you will not face the players on your own team. There will be 1v1 games against every other player on the other teams and the team with the best combined record will move on. That team will then play a round robin among themselves. The best 4 records will move on, and a double round robin among the finalists will take place. The winner will have the best record.

8 games will be played at a time. I will send out 8 games a week. Each set of games will be against 1 division.

All games will be:RANDOM MAPSequentialAutomaticStandardEscalatingSunnyNo Trench

I will be applying for a GA medal I believe:

MVP--This goes to the player that has the best record in the first round

There is one winner determined from the winning team using additional round robins. I will also apply for a GA medal for the best record after the first round (24 games)

The captain does play. Basically, the only thing the captain is responsible for is to submit a list of the players in the order they are wanted. Given this format, it's a fair way to break up the teams so I'm not accused of cheating.
